摘要：

The collateral behavior of pigeons under differential-reinforcement-of-low-rate (DRL) schedules was evaluated for its role in controlling DRL performance. Two of three pigeons engaged in high rates of collateral keypecking under schedules up to DRL 28 sec. Rate of collateral pecking was positively correlated with DRL efficiency. Topographical features of the collateral behavior were inconsistent with the notion that collateral behavior mediates DRL performance through response-produced stimuli. Rather, the collateral behavior appeared to interfere with the operant response, delaying it long enough to meet the DRL requirement. © 1979 Psychonomic Society, Inc.
